Cheltenham Borough Council, which licenses taxi and private hire drivers, has also been notified of the alleged incident.

A police spokesman said: “It is reported that shortly after 10am there was a damage-only collision at the location involving a silver Chevrolet and a blue Peugeot following which a man assaulted a woman with a water hose causing her to get wet.

“Officers are studying CCTV of the alleged incident to establish what happened and who was involved.”

Mr Foley said it was a “dark day” for his company, which specialises in providing a taxi service for people in wheelchairs, and he was almost in tears about the allegation.
